Hotel chains, worried about competition from Airbnb , are rolling out these and other special experiences for their best rewards customers. And the big hotel chains are worried. I’ve stayed in their hotels many times and I like them just fine. In taking the rewards experience approach, hotels are making a perfectly rational assumption. Behavioral economics tells us that these hotel rewards are likely to play out the same way. Hotels Keep on Charging!
